lol I am still geeking out that my fanfic managed to influence your canon. How fucking awesome is thaaaaat!? OMG

I loved that Dylan wasn't having any of Xan's blaming himself for what Krun had done to him. Love that it even became canon in the first place. Love that the shadow blob thing that lead them out of that dimension was named Bob. So many silly things that just made me squee about this. xD

Super-awesome. It is super-awesome. Now you know how I felt when I influenced YOUR canon, haha. :D

I am super, super happy this was so squee-worthy! ^_^

“Our - our guide? Like this is the 'Freaky Sparkle Dimension Tour' or something?”If it is, I really hope they bought some fucking T-shirts. I want one, too ( ... )

I think wussiness might be one of Xan's natural personality flaws. Your comment is helpful, because that's something I should be thinking about, if that's a normal personality trait or a trauma side effect. I think it might be why he never showed my interest in politics or anything like that; he's sort of afraid of failure and scared of making an effort and not being good enough. I'm not familiar with this at all, by the way. Haha

I do think being with Dylan will help him develop an actual personality besides "avoids everything ever." Also, the fact that his dads are dying might spur actual character development? Kind of like what's supposed to happen to Kalen? Though Xan did start out less punchable, lol.

Damn, now I want to go on Zazzle.com or something and make "I went to the Freaky Sparkle Dimension and all I got was this lousy t-shirt!" or "Official Freaky Sparkle Dimension Tour" t-shirts or something similar. That would require graphic design ability and a reasonable customer base though, haha.

Haha, I'm glad it was helpful. :)

Kalen didn't start out that punchable but Xan made it 65k without getting that way and Kalen, well, didn't. Perhaps I do not excel at writing likable characters. Most people seem to like Brendan though. With the avoidance and the privilege, Xan does seem like he could have a similar reason for his lack of personality.

I would buy that shirt!
